CC   -!- FUNCTION: Key transcriptional regulator of type I interferon (IFN)-
CC       dependent immune responses and plays a critical role in the innate
CC       immune response against DNA and RNA viruses (PubMed:28342865,
CC       PubMed:28768858). Regulates the transcription of type I IFN genes (IFN-
CC       alpha and IFN-beta) and IFN-stimulated genes (ISG) by binding to an
CC       interferon-stimulated response element (ISRE) in their promoters
CC       (PubMed:17574024, PubMed:32972995). Can efficiently activate both the
CC       IFN-beta (IFNB) and the IFN-alpha (IFNA) genes and mediate their
CC       induction via both the virus-activated, MyD88-independent pathway and
CC       the TLR-activated, MyD88-dependent pathway. Induces transcription of
CC       ubiquitin hydrolase USP25 mRNA in response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS)
CC       or viral infection in a type I IFN-dependent manner (By similarity).
CC       Required during both the early and late phases of the IFN gene
CC       induction but is more critical for the late than for the early phase.
CC       Exists in an inactive form in the cytoplasm of uninfected cells and
CC       following viral infection, double-stranded RNA (dsRNA), or toll-like
CC       receptor (TLR) signaling, becomes phosphorylated by IKBKE and TBK1
CC       kinases. This induces a conformational change, leading to its
CC       dimerization and nuclear localization where along with other
CC       coactivators it can activate transcription of the type I IFN and ISG
CC       genes. Can also play a role in regulating adaptive immune responses by
CC       inducing PSMB9/LMP2 expression, either directly or through induction of
CC       IRF1. Binds to the Q promoter (Qp) of EBV nuclear antigen 1 a (EBNA1)
CC       and may play a role in the regulation of EBV latency. Can activate
CC       distinct gene expression programs in macrophages and regulate the anti-
CC       tumor properties of primary macrophages (By similarity)
CC       (PubMed:11073981, PubMed:12374802, PubMed:15361868, PubMed:17404045).

CC   -!- ACTIVITY REGULATION: In the absence of viral infection, maintained as a
CC       monomer in an autoinhibited state and phosphorylation disrupts this
CC       autoinhibition leading to the liberation of the DNA-binding and
CC       dimerization activities and its nuclear localization where it can
CC       activate type I IFN and ISG genes.
